Agents for controlling plant pests

Abstract

The present invention provides compositions for controlling plant pests, containing the compound of the formula (I)and at least one fungicidally active compound, except for tebuconazole, cyclopropylcarboxamides and azolylmethylcycloalkanes.

What is claimed is:  
     
       1. A composition comprising a first compound of formuia (I)                    
       and a second compound of the formula                    
     
     
       2. The composition of  claim 1 , comprising from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of the second compound per part by weight of the compound of formula (I). 
     
     
       3. A process far controlling the growth of at least one of fungi and insects, comprising applying an effective amount of the composition of  claim 1  to at least one of the fungi, insect and their habitat. 
     
     
       4. A process for preparing a pesticide comprising mixing the composition of  claim 1  with at least one of extenders and surfactants. 
     
     
       5. A process for controlling the growth of at least one of fungi and insects, comprising treating a member selected from the group consisting of plants, propagation stocks, seeds, soils, industrial materials and combinations thereof with an effective amount of the composition of  claim 1 . 
     
     
       6. The process of  claim 5 , wherein the step of treating comprises applying the composition in a manner selected from the group consisting of watering, spraying, atomizing, scattering, spreading, dry dressing, wet dressing, liquid dressing, slurry treatment of seeds, incrustation and combinations thereof. 
     
     
       7. The process of  claim 5 , wherein the composition further includes an ingredient selected from the group consisting of solvents, emulsiflers, dispersants, binders, fixatives, water repelients, desiccants, UV stabilizers and mixtures thereof. 
     
     
       8. The process of  claim 5  wherein the member comprises an industrial material selected from the group consisting of wood, timber products and mixtures thereof. 
     
     
       9. The process of  claim 8 , wherein the step of treating the industrial material comprises impregnating the industrial material with the composition. 
     
     
       10. A fungicidal and insecticidal composition comprising synergistic effective amounts of a first compound of formula (I)                    
       and a second compound of the formula                    
       at least one ingredient selected from the group consisting of solvents, emulsifiers and dispersants. 
     
     
       11. The composition of  claim 10  comprising a form selected from the group consisting of ready-to-use solutions, emulsifiable concentrates, emulsions, suspensions, wettable powders, soluble powders, granules and mixtures thereof. 
     
     
       12. The composition of  claim 10  comprising from 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of the second compound per part by weight of the compound of formula (I). 
     
     
       13. The composition of  claim 12 , wherein the composition comprises from 0.3 to 3 parts by weight of the second compound per part by weight of the compound of formula (I).
